April 19, 200619 yr QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 04:23 PM) doesn't that look sexy in the standings... wow, and friday Buehrle takes the mound. this rotation is unbelievable. It's amazing because there is never a lapse in the rotation, barring injuries of course. (Knock on wood) You got Buehrle and you feel good, then Freddy, Count, Jon, and Vaz. When you have confidence in all 5 starters like that, that they will go out and give you a solid 7 and a QS, then you know your rotation is the s***.
April 19, 200619 yr QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 03:24 PM) We're all of one game off of last year's pace. And we're 1 game behind the super-ultra-mega-hott/totally-completely-unbeatable Mets.
April 19, 200619 yr QUOTE(Wedge @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 03:25 PM) And we're 1 game behind the super-ultra-mega-hott/totally-completely-unbeatable Mets. Half a game actually.

April 19, 200619 yr QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 04:28 PM) The Mets are so overrated it's laughable. With the number of people that say exactly what you just said, how are they overrated
April 19, 200619 yr QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 03:30 PM) With the number of people that say exactly what you just said, how are they overrated I don't like their rotation at all outside of Pedro. Their bridge from starter to Wagner is also pretty average. They've got a pretty solid line-up, although it will never reach it's full potential unless Reyes learns to take a walk, and Beltran becomes the Beltran from '04.
April 19, 200619 yr With our rotation, I think we will have quite a few 8-2 and 9-1 ten game stretches, (and likely something longer than our 8-game win streaks last year), while on the bad side, we should never do worse than 5-5. 101+ wins. A new Sox record. Count on it. There's a long way to go, some bullpen issues, and some very competitive teams in the AL, but our great starting pitching is the best formula for very strong winning stretches.
April 19, 200619 yr QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 04:25 PM) We should just go 9-1 all the time in our last 10. I'm pretty sickened by your low expectations for this team. If Javy wasn't freaking tipping his pitches Friday, I'd be 10 wins in a row. 9-1 in our last 10 is only acceptable for those once in a while occasions where we just get our butt kicked from inning 1 through 9.

April 19, 200619 yr sox are looking good pitching is the key and weve seen how good garland and javy can be this year
April 19, 200619 yr QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 03:50 PM) Unfortunately, we have Santana on friday. So we gone. If there was ever a good time to get Santana it's now.
April 19, 200619 yr QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 04:47 PM) Good point, I apologize. No problem, anytime. Unfortunately, we have Santana on friday. So we gone. Not so fast. Maybe we can get Buehrle on his game again against that still poor Twins offense, get it to the 10th 0-0, and beat their bullpen.
April 19, 200619 yr QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 03:50 PM) Unfortunately, we have Santana on friday. So we gone. We're due to beat his ass. We're swingin' it pretty good right now. And he hasn't exactly been '04 Santana so far.
April 19, 200619 yr santana 0-2 with 5.71 era this year so hes showed he can be beat no other team in baseball is even 8-2 in last 10

April 19, 200619 yr Author QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 04:50 PM) Unfortunately, we have Santana on friday. So we gone. There is someone by the name of Mark Buehrle going against him. Which pitcher is better? I'd take Buehrle any day of the week.
